Time together, well spent

Tic-tac-toe

Hearts & Kisses is Duemello’s version of tic-tac-toe. Two players take turns filling a three-by-three grid, trying to make a line before the other person does. It is an easy game to explain and a quick way to start a session together.

A quick two-player match with very little setup.

How to play tic-tac-toe

  1. Take turns selecting an empty square.
  2. Make three of your symbols in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal line.
  3. If the board fills without a line, start another round and swap who moves first.

A useful way to start

Look for an immediate win before making a defensive move. If there is no winning move, block your opponent’s two-in-a-row. A centre or corner opening leaves useful options.

Make it a shared moment

You can take turns or discuss your next move on one device. For supported shared play across devices, open the game’s Private room control and invite one person. Both devices need an internet connection. Read how private rooms work.
